Odds are, your worn and faded center console armrest's latch is broken by now. Odds are also pretty high that you're tired of trying to rest your arm on that wiggling lid.

Your Audi's generator, fans, water pumps and AC compressors all rely on accessory drive belts to do their job. Over time, cracking, glazing, and squeaking occur; for these reasons, replacing your drive belts before they crack or break is a highly prudent investment. Additionally, If the accessory belt snaps constantly, or is sloppy and loose in your vehicle, the only solution is a new tensioner. The ECS-assembled kit comes with everything you need to refresh your whole drive belt system, including belts, tensioner, and hardware.

Replacing cooling system components and performing a proper coolant flush will ensure a long life for your cooling system. Most of the cooling system components are exposed to very high temperatures and repeated thermal cycling.

Avoid headaches altogether and replace all problematic items at once to keep your cooling system running efficiently.

Take the danger and aggravation out of lifting your MKI Audi TT with the ECS Tuning Jack Pad Adapter Kit.

Made of black anodized aluminum for added strength and corrosion resistance, the adapter fits the head of most hydraulic floor jacks, including the Schwaben Low Boy.

Continual heat cycling and system debris will crack and eventually stain the expansion tank, also referred to as the coolant recovery bottle.

All come ready to install, with integral fluid sensor and new pressure cap. Go stock or upgrade to the R8 kit with brushed metal cap trim.
